On December 11, 2026, a unique event will take place in southern Sweden. Four municipalities in the Småland region are joining forces to organize a joint information and recruitment event for international job seekers and professionals interested in living and working in Sweden.
Often referred to as the industrial heart of Sweden, this region is home to many successful manufacturing and technology companies. However, employers across the area are facing a growing shortage of qualified and skilled workers. By working together, the municipalities aim to attract talented people who can help meet the region’s workforce needs.
There is particularly strong demand for professionals in:
- Engineering
- Maintenance and technical services
- Production and manufacturing
- Logistics and supply chain management
- Healthcare
- Education
What to Expect
The event is organized by the participating municipalities, which will provide practical information about life in the region, including:
- Housing opportunities
- Schools and childcare
- Leisure and recreational activities
- Living and working in Sweden
In addition, companies with current job openings will be present, along with staffing and recruitment agencies. For many international candidates, these agencies can serve as an important first step into the Scandinavian labor market.
Participating Municipalities
- Gnosjö
- Vaggeryd
